The Presentations
Richie Woodhall has had a very successful amateur and professional career and, as boxing commentator he has seen every bout in the last two Olympic Games. Richie has been asked to address two issues in particular:
1. The trends in International Amateur Boxing
a. The impact of a return to 3 rounds of 3 minutes on these trends
b. The impact of the changes on the training, preparation and tactics of boxers
2. Weight Management – views from a professional and amateur career
Mick Gannon has responsibility for the development and preparation of the elite English boxers across the age groups including the rapidly developing women’s boxing. The pathway to English selection is of interest to all boxers and coaches in the West Country and Mick has attended our Squads and selected young boxers for inclusion in England training squads.
On top of all this important work, Mick is responsible for the implementation of the new Coach education Programme which will be rolled out in 2009.
We have asked Mick to address two issues in particular:
1. What are the key requirements for an English boxer?
2. What is the pathway from the West Country to England?

2. The impact upon the new generation of trainee coaches
3. How the boxing coach education programme compares with other sports
Kevin Hay, our Regional coach who has done so much to raise the performance of Western Counties Boxing for both sexes.

Womens Championships 2008
Both the junior finals and the senior semi finals and finals will take place on June 21st 2008 at:
The Army Boxing Centre Maida Gym Queens Avenue Aldershot GU11 2BT
We have 4 entries from Western Counties this year.
Shauna Eva (Exeter) will have a semi final against C Shield (Lawrence)
Tinika Penforld (Tivey) will have a semi final against C Brown (Hamer)
D Leaney (Saints) will have a final with either C Allinson (Aycliffe) or R Murray (Birmingham City)
Lisa Perryman (Empire) will have semi final against T Clack (Campol)
So Western Counties have been unlucky in drawing a semi prior to the finals for three girls out of four, but sure they will use the semi's as there warm up to the grand final !
Good Luck.
